Well, I'd like to ask what purpose we are up to with fedoranews.org.
What does it do what we can't do at fedoraproject.org? Is it outside of
the scope from the legal rules of the Fedora Project?

<disclaimer: personal feelings involved>

BTW, the reason why I dislike fedoranews.org are articles like this:
http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/Installing_NVIDIA_drivers_manually_on_FC4

(that's a improved version -- the first one was even worse). There are a
lot better ways to install the drivers that are more clean. See

http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Xorg/3rdPartyVideoDrivers
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2006-February/msg01178.html

Also it encourages people sometimes to enable repos that are not
compatible with Core and Extras.
